I've setup my funky little QA website to report on which ones fall in that category, and here is the list right here: http://spaceparanoids.org/gentoo/gpnl/qa.php?q=metadata I've spent the morning fixing up most of them, adding blank metadata.xml to them and assigning maintainer-needed@gentoo.org as the main maintainer, which in hindsight was probably not the best approach (my apologies). Anyway, either way, it would be nice to get the few remaining packages cleaned up, and if one of your packages is on that list, please update or create the metadata. I'll still be going through the rest of them and sorting out which ones were last maintained by a dev that is now retired and continue assigning them to maintainer-needed. Thanks Steve -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
